HC Deb 11 July 1972 vol 840 cc277-8W
41. Mr. Loughlin

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services if he will investigate the circumstances in which a child died whilst being attended to by a person not being a medical practitioner but practising as such in the Forest of Dean; and if he will inquire to discover what other cases have occurred in similar circumstances.

Sir K. Joseph

I am aware of Press reports and am making urgent inquiries into the circumstances surrounding the provision of general medical services by the person in question.
